oldtimespark, The GXD type, yes I use them all the time, carry them as van stock, they are a pain in the ar*e, however, when done correctly they offer good mechanical strength which is an advantage in the areas I normally work in! Paul

Doubtful you'll ever see an accurate DMM go to 0V unless it is connected to the same potential with no real distance between the leads, these days they are so sensitive that they can pick up the EM filed form HF lighting! Put both probes on a N bar, 0V, put one on the E bar and on elsewhere...
